For this issue, Tested-by: Joakim Zhang <qiangqing.zhang@....com>

Hi John,

It seems have other issue compared to 5.10 kernel after switching to this framework, below metric can't work.
"MetricExpr": "(( imx8_ddr0@...d\\-cycles@ + imx8_ddr0@...te\\-cycles@ ) * 4 * 4 / duration_time) / (750 * 1000000 * 4 * 4)"
After change to:
"MetricExpr": "(( imx8mm_ddr.read_cycles + imx8mm_ddr.write_cycles ) * 4 * 4 / duration_time) / (750 * 1000000 * 4 * 4)",


Best Regards,
Joakim Zhang
